Gaza Emergency Appeal

Caritas Finland has responded to the Emergency Appeal issued by Caritas Internationalis to assist the victims of the fighting in Gaza. Since the conflict between Palestinians and Israel escalated in July, several thousand people have been killed or wounded in the fighting. The aid from Caritas Finland will be channeled to those in need through Caritas Internationalis.

Lenten Collections

This year’s Lenten Collection will be in support of the global Caritas campaign One human family, food for all. The monies collected will be used for agriculture projects currently being set up. In addition, ten percent will be spent on social work in Catholic parishes in Finland.​

We invite all people of good faith to take a moment at midday on 10th December to be part of our “wave of prayer” which will cross through all continents of the world. The wave launches the Caritas campaign, One human family, food for all, which aims to end global hunger by 2025.
